A free, browser-based accessibility tool that converts any text into the OpenDyslexic font — designed to improve readability and reduce reading errors for people with dyslexia.
Paste or type any text — from a website, email, document, or anywhere else — and instantly render it in the OpenDyslexic typeface. A suite of additional accessibility controls lets you fine-tune the experience to suit your needs.

OpenDyslexic is a free typeface created by Abelardo Gonzalez. Each letter has a unique shape and a weighted bottom, which helps anchor letters and reduce the letter-flipping and swapping that some people with dyslexia experience. While research on its effectiveness is ongoing, many users report a meaningful improvement in reading comfort.
